Gotta start somewhere. The same problem existed in 2006-07. What was the first change? Coach, followed by GM resignation. Clarke would've still been GM if he did not want to resign.
- Flyskippy

Yup. Ultimately when a team performs poorly the coach is the first casuality 95% of the time. And that will probably be the case here.

Talent? No. Effort would be nice.
- Flyskippy

I agree. This is embarrassing. The effort stinks. The coach is horrendous. The goalie can't make a stop.

Danny Briere is so good

Good at doing nothing

Just for that the price just went up, throw in Despres.
- BulliesPhan87

I see what you did ther...

Well played.

Only Rowdy Piper's turnaround was a good one. All others pale by comparison. And I don't want the Flyers suddenly getting warnings for diving because he changed to a team the NHL dislikes.
- Flyskippy

The dives will be replaced with blown coverages, based on this game.

good thing i have hershey bears tickets tomorrow. get to see some good hockey being played.

3 goals on 6 shots? C'mon d and bryzgalov

All right, I'm off to take the Christmas decorations down. It's time.

Don't worry guys, the Sabres will be the answer to what ails you! Team in a funk? We'll bail you out! Star in a scoring slump? The Sabres will be your slump buster! Backup goalie blues? Don't worry, we'll make him look like a Vezina winner!

replace "Sabres" with "Flyers" and still true statment

There's a group of 12 year olds playing street hockey in the next block. Might head down there shortly.

And Florida isn't on the same level as the Flyers, yet they have beaten them twice in Philly. Go figure.

Boston is legit. The Flyers arent. This is by far the worst defensive team I've seen in awhile.

Before you know it Bryzgalov will have the worst save % in the NHL. That stat doesn't come with an * denoting poor team defense. The statistic is what it is.

Nah, you just watched the entire Eagles season didn't you?

any coach ever been fired between periods?

Lavy should start packing his bags during the intermission

It is a pretty weak offensive team also tbh.
Too man black holes.

The team flat out sucks defensively. That third goal should of been stopped. I have no answers.

If we are going to go in a new direction than I think you buyout Bryz and Briere and use the money elsewhere.

- FlyerGuy

Laviolette just came out of his office and handed his travel bags to Giroux and his assistant captains so they could pack them up. You know, just in case.

Chip Kelly

I don't know why people expected anything different today. Their not on the same level as Boston.
- stveshdy

The flyers are not on the same level with all top teams

Lavy might get fired to create a spark, and because you can't fire a team, but it's a pipe-dream to imagine that will change this team.

1 good line, 3 average to below average lines.

No scoring outside the powerplay.

Turnovers. Bad passes. etc. ad nauseum.

- broadstreet11

I can't see him surviving past tomorrow. I see Boucher starting tomorrow with Murray behind the bench on an interim basis. Well lose games but he d will improve.
